Languages of Wales
The two official languages of Wales are Welsh and English. Under Welsh law, Welsh and English have equal status.
==Geographical distribution==
English is widely used throughout the country and is the native language of most people in the South and the North East of the country; in the West and North, Welsh is the dominant native language. Nevertheless, there are a number of communities throughout the country to which these generalisations do not apply. For example, despite being located in the overwhelmingly English-speaking city of Swansea, 45% of Mawr's residents speak Welsh as their native language.
According to the 2011 census, Welsh is spoken by 19% of the population and English is spoken by 99% of the population.〔(QS206WA - Welsh language skills ), ONS 2011 census. Out of the 2,955,841 residents of Wales over the age of three, 562,016 (19%) can speak Welsh. Retrieved 20 July 2015.〕〔(QS205EW - Proficiency in English ), ONS 2011 census. Out of the 2,955,841 residents of Wales over the age of three, 2,936,536 (99%) can speak English "well" or "very well". Retrieved 20 July 2015.〕
